Im curious as to when leopard geckos stop producing fertile eggs? I have a pair of breeders who are about a year and a half of and wondered this lol.. Tried looking it up but didnt really find anything

Buy a copy of the herpetoculture of leopard geckos by Ron Tremper. Anyone even considering breeding leopard geckos should have this book on hand.

Generally, females are most productive between 1 and 3 years old, after that the number of eggs decreases overtime. Females over 7-8 years old usually stop producing eggs, but they can theoretically do so up into their teens.

Males have no age restrictions once they are sexually mature. They can produce viable sperm for their entire lifespan.

Isn't that just typical of males
